16AWG for the motherboard (24pin+8pin) is highly unnecessary. 18AWG cable can carry 7A (84W) PER WIRE safely under 3ft distances plus it is much easier to group the wires in the angle I made.
16AWG wire can carry about 13A (156W) per wire safely and is more suitable for GPU wiring.
I used any brand wire cutters. Crimp tool is Iwiss: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OMMZ502
And yes, those are the exact items I bought from moddiy.com.
I had to trim off about 4-5mm off of the end of each connector so that the pin end is flush with the end of the connector.
I find making the cables to be the nicest looking.
I find the tool kit, cable cutter, knife and combs to be necessary. However you could use scissors instead of the knife and cutter, go without the combs, and use paper clips and small screwdrivers instead of the tool kit.
The paracord has a million options and is very cheap. Buy too much.
If you're really careful, you don't need heatshrink. However if you need it, it's really cheap.
I’ve had mixed results with cheap crimpers, but I’ve heard that the IWISS SN-48B do a pretty good job. I just haven’t used them myself, so can’t say for sure.
